Dirt Bike Bill of Sale Template

A dirt bike bill of sale records an off-road motorcycle sale with the year, make, model, engine size and VIN. Most dirt bikes are sold without a title because they were never registered for the road, which makes a signed bill of sale the main thing a buyer has to prove ownership. Pick your state and the form adapts to its rules.

Why a dirt bike bill of sale matters

  • Most dirt bikes have no title; this document is the ownership record.
  • Needed if the buyer later wants to register it as an OHV or convert it to street legal.
  • Records the VIN, which matters because dirt bikes are stolen often.
  • Protects a seller from claims once the bike leaves.

Before you sign

  • The VIN is stamped on the steering head.
  • Note the hour meter reading and any recent engine work.
  • Keep the manufacturer's certificate of origin (MCO) with the bill of sale if you have it.
  • Both parties sign and keep a copy.

Dirt Bike Bill of Sale by state

Rules differ by state: some require a bill of sale for every sale, some only when the title has no price, and a few want it notarized. Pick yours for the exact rule, the form number and the agency.

Common questions

Does a dirt bike need a title?+

Usually not, because it was never road-registered. Some states issue OHV titles for newer bikes. Either way, the bill of sale is what the next buyer and any registration office will ask for.

Can I make a dirt bike street legal with a bill of sale?+

That depends on the state. The bill of sale is step one; most states then require a title or MCO, a VIN inspection and equipment like lights and mirrors.
